FDA approves heart medication for African-Americans - The Associated
Press
Updated: 8:26 a.m. ET June 24, 2005WASHINGTON -
Now that the FDA has for the first time approved a drug specifically
for blacks, medical experts are sure to debate the implications, with
some questioning the validity of medical research that focuses on
race.

Data clearly showed that BiDil had a positive effect on a population
disproportionately burdened by cardiovascular disease, said Dr. Anne
Taylor of the University of Minnesota Medical School and a lead
investigator in the research of BiDil.
“African-Americans between the ages of 45 and 64 are 2.5 times more
likely to die prematurely from heart failure than their non-black
counterparts,” she said. “FDA approval of BiDil represents an
important leap forward in addressing this health disparity.”

Try reading the article, cLoser. It says they didn't start
looking for a race-specific drug, but test results show that
this drug helps blacks but not the general population.
Why NOT use it? Because it's politically incorrect to see
any differences between blacks and whites, so we should
let all of those additional blacks die????
